*Nipuna Pov*

"Did you hear?" Chaitra asked in a whisper, and I glanced up from my delicious ice cream to see her with a look that shows she has some secret.

"No! I am busy in eating." I replied shrugging.

"I can see that! Anyway, your ex is having troubles in his marriage." She said making me look at her in surprise.

"I think just one month passed since their marriage right? Then why were they having them already?" I asked her frowning.

"Who knows! I think he kind of rushed to get married after getting his one year dating into the trash because of your dad. Now, he is having trouble because of that." She explained.

"Tell him that I will kill him if he spread those rumors that he rushed because of the incidents with me. Even though if he rushed, then he should have patience to get themselves settled and not complain like a kid, which he is definitely." I said pushing the ice cream away losing the interest in it.

"I think we will get late for a movie if we don't leave now." she said looking at the watch understanding I just got bad mood.

"We are in a mall, Chiatra. And even if we get late..." I trailed off with a feeling of some danger lurking at the back of my head.

"What is it?" she asked, frowning seeing my expression.

"I am late!" I replied in a whisper.

"There is still time for the movie." She replied shaking her head.

"No! I am actually late." I said, stressing the word.

"Oh!" she mumbled understanding and cleared her throat asking "How many days?"

"Ten!" I replied calculating the time.

"Maybe just a normal late. I mean it happens right?" she asked and I really hoped what she is saying is true.

"It never happened to me." I whispered and stood up with panic.

"Don't panic! Let's buy some tests and see." she suggested, and I nodded before we both rushed into the drug store.

"Nipuna!" I heard her knocking on the washroom door, but I can't even stand up after looking at the results.

"What have I done, Chaitra?" I asked her stepping outside the washroom after a few minutes.

"Is it positive?" she asked and I nodded before settling on the bed and pulled my knees to the chest.

"You are on birth control, right? Then how did it happen?" she asked frowning.

"I... I stopped after the break up. I didn't think I would date any time soon." I replied, hiding my face stopping the tears which actually didn't start.

"You mean the father is a one-night stand?" she asked suddenly sitting before me.

"Whom did you think? My married Ex?" I asked her shaking my head.

"Just think, Nipuna. Pregnancy from a married guy is no way better, but this is kind of ok. But, you have to find him and give him the news." She replied, placing her hand over my hand.

"I don't know who the guy is. I even threw the paper away." I pointed out.

"Yeah! You should even tell your dad about it." she mumbled and left after some time.

"Nipuna!" I heard Dad calling me while I continued to stay in my room.

I sighed, getting up and reached downstairs to see a few people in the living room. I frowned, but walked near to my dad who is smiling at them and introduced me to them.

"They are interested in you, Nipuna. And I think it would be better if the friendship with them turns into more." He said, and I groaned inside thinking this is definitely not my day.

I talked with them a little and waited until they all left. I don't even know who the groom is but I know they can't continue anything without my wish.

"We need to talk, Dad." I said in a dead tone when they left.

"What is it?" he asked, sipping his tea.

"I am pregnant!" I replied, hearing which he immediately sputtered the liquid which he took in.

"What? And you are telling me about it like it is a good thing?" he asked with rage standing up.

"I am not ashamed but I am sad that I am. However, I told you so that you stop bringing anyone home for marriage proposals." I replied standing up myself.

"Is your ex the father?" he asked when I reached the stairs.

"No! He is someone else and... he doesn't know." I replied and heard the cup crashing with force.

I walked inside my room and felt like tearing everything inside the room for falling into this situation. Why did I have to be very stupid? I thought covering my face.

"We need to talk about something." Finally, Dad said after giving two weeks off silent treatment, and I didn't ask him to even talk.

"About?" I asked him cutting the apple.

"About your situation!" He stated and put the fruit down before glancing up to see him already settling before me at the dining table.

"Will you abort the baby?" he asked directly.

"No!" I replied, tightening the grip on the knife.

"Very well then! You have two options in front of you, and you should choose one of them." He said, and I didn't say anything to let him speak.

"Either bring the guy home who is responsible for this with which I will get you both married. Or I will get someone who will be ready to marry you accepting the baby." He added, and I stared at him.

"Why would any of your friend's son would want to?" I asked him frowning.

"Two, three are divorcees!" he replied, not making eye contact with me.

"I think I can stay without getting married at all." I stated ignoring his options.

"That is not an option, Nipuna. There will be many talks if you give birth without anyone giving it the name." He said raising his voice.

"All you need is a name right? I will give it a name, but the marriage is not an option." I said, getting up and walked away ignoring his calls.

How will I get it any name when I don't even know the initial of the person I have been with? Should I marry someone my dad chooses? I thought before shaking my head.

No! I know in many cases regarding their divorces, and I do not want to be one of them. Nevertheless, what should I do now? I thought, leaning on the door and closed my eyes.

"Sometimes I feel lucky, Nipuna." Chaitra suddenly commented making me frown at her and pause the TV.

"Why?" I asked her raising my eyebrow.

"I do not have a dad like you. I mean he should have scolded you and then later be with any decision you have taken." She replied making me sigh.

"Even I wished for scolding, Chaitra. You know how much I acted rebel just to get his scolding but I always thought I was not being much rebel." I said, and she held my hand nodding.

"Now when I am in this situation, I thought he would at least show me his anger or pain for this, but no. He is again thinking about his reputation, but not for me." I added wishing I can really get tears easily to my eyes.

"What will you do now?" she asked and at the same time we heard many car doors slamming with force.

We both rushed into the living room to see dad and a few others of his party people walking inside with anger on their faces. One of them switched on the TV and kept the news channel which is like food for all these people increasing the volume.

"He just got a ticket, sir. Do not think much about it." One of them consoled my dad while he is shaking with anger.

"It is not the ticket. I do not want any of their family members to enter this field for the rivalry with them from various years. Now, that stupid boy got the ticket." Dad shouted, making Chaitra tremble, but I am already used to this.

"They are having a party today, Sir." Another mumbled, making my dad's anger increase.

I glanced at them thinking this is their job to get him to raise his temper, I guess. I mean when he is in that much rage, then they should stop saying these things.

I shook my head and chose to switch off the TV using the remote I am holding and glanced at the Tv only to get still in my position.

Aahil! I thought seeing the person who is giving a happy speech. He is in a political career? He is our rivalry? My dad hates his family? I got all the questions and felt my knees go weak, with the stomach twisting feeling a bug inside.

"What is it, Nipuna?" Chaitra asked, placing her hand on my shoulder.

"It is him!" I replied in a whisper pointing the TV with the remote.

"What?" she asked in confusion.

"It is Aahil!" I replied, raising my voice like I am saying it to myself, but to my bad luck, my finger already pressed the off button getting silence around the room.

Dad stared at me along with the remaining people for a few seconds and then realized what I am talking about. He immediately made everyone leave the room saying he has some work and then turned towards me.

"Is he the guy?" he asked again after Chaitra left when I asked her to.

"Yes!" I replied, still in the same position and still holding the remote.

"Did you date him? Is it wantingly to sabotage my reputation?" he asked making me go stiff hearing his questions.

"He doesn't know who I am." I replied, to which he nodded and paced before me.

"Very well! Your marriage will get fixed tomorrow with the person I choose for you." He said in a tone which didn't give any chance for fighting.

"No!" I said, shaking my head.

"Fine! Either my choice or I will wash my hands of you, but after you get married to Aahil Vishwanth only." He stated and walked away before I could say anything.

I just glanced at the TV thinking did I really get involved myself with the person who has a career in the profession which I hate with every cell in my body?
